Usage
Data |
When
you use the Site, we automatically collect information from your browser or

Cookies
and Similar Technologies
First and Third-Party Cookies
A "cookie" is a small file created by a web server that can
be stored on your device (if you allow) for use either during a particular
browsing session (a "session" cookie) or a future browsing session (a
"persistent" or "permanent" cookie). "Session" cookies are temporarily stored
on your hard drive and only last until they expire at the end of your browsing session.
"Persistent" or "permanent" cookies remain stored on your hard drive until they
expire or are deleted by you. Local stored objects (or "flash" cookies) are
used to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to,
from, and on a website. First-party cookies are set by the website you're
visiting, and they can only be read by that site. Third-party cookies are set
by a party other than that website.
Other Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, there are other automatic data
collection technologies, such as Internet tags, web beacons (clear gifs, pixel
tags, and single-pixel gifs), and navigational data collection (log files,
server logs, etc.) that can be used to collect data as users navigate through
and interact with a website:
- Web
beacons: These are tiny graphics (sometimes called "clear GIFs" or "web
pixels") with unique identifiers that are used to understand browsing
activity. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's device, web
beacons are rendered invisible on web pages when you open a page.
- Social
Widgets: These are buttons or icons provided by third-party social media
platforms that allow you to interact with social media services when you
view a webpage. These social widgets may collect browsing data, which may
be received by the third party that provided the widget and are controlled
by third parties.
UTM Codes: These are strings that can appear in a URL (the
"Uniform Resource Locator," which is typically the http or https address
entered to go to a webpage) when you move from one web page or website to
another. The string can represent information about browsing, such as which
advertisement, page, or publisher sent the user to the receiving website.
What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are in Use and Why Do
We Use Them?
We use first-party and third-party cookies and similar
technologies for purposes such as to improve Site functionality, to measure and
track how users interact with the Site and perform similar analytics, to track
ad-driven activity on the Site, and to otherwise tailor our communications with
you.
Other Third-Party Technologies
Some third parties may use automated data collection
technologies to collect information about you when you browse the Internet. The
information they collect about your online browsing activities over time and
across different websites and other online services may be associated with your
personal information and used to provide you with targeted content. We do not
control these third parties' technologies or how they may be used. If you have
any questions about targeted content, you should contact the responsible party
directly or consult their privacy policies.
Choices About Cookies
Most web browsers are set by default to accept cookies. If
you do not wish to receive cookies, you may choose to not allow certain cookies
via the cookies consent banner or you may set your browser to refuse all or
some types of cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent by website
tracking technologies and advertising. You may adjust your browser settings to
opt out of accepting a "persistent" cookie and to only accept "session"
cookies, but you will need to log in each time you want to enjoy the full
functionality of the Site.
Please be aware that, if you decline the use of cookies, you
may not have access to the full benefits of the Site. In addition, adjusting
the cookie settings on the Site may not fully delete all of the cookies that
have already been created. To delete them, visit your web browser settings after
